Answer:

Cost incurred while running a restaurant:

Salary paid = $200,000 per year

Ingredients cost =  $50,000 per year

Before running this restaurant, he was earning $150000 per year.

Here, we are using a concept called opportunity cost.

Opportunity cost refers to the benefit of a commodity that is forgone to produce one extra unit of some other commodity.

It is also refers to the value of next best alternative that is given up by choosing some other alternative.

In this question, opportunity cost of running a restaurant is the income that is earned when he was a lawyer, i.e, $1,50,000 per year. This is the income that is foregone when he started running a restaurant.

You wish to retire in 20 years, at which time you want to have accumulated enough money to receive an annual annuity of $24,000
den301095 [7]

Answer:

$3,286.52

Explanation:

Interest rate per annum = 12.00%

Number of years = 25

Number of compounding per per annum = 1

Interest rate per period (r) = 12.00%

Number of periods (n) = 25

Payment per period (P) = $24,000

PV of $24,000 payments after 20 years = P * [1 - (1/(1+r)^n)]/ r

PV of $24,000 payments after 20 years = 24000*[1-(1/(1+12%)^25]/12%

PV of $24,000 payments after 20 years = $188,235.34

Interest rate per annum = 10.00%

Number of years= 20

Number of payments per per annum = 1

Interest rate per period (r) = 10.00%

Number of periods (n) = 20

Future value of annuity (FVA) = $188,235

Annual contribution (P) = FVA/ ([ (1+r)^n - 1] / r)

Annual contribution (P) = 188235/(((1+10%)^20-1)/10%)

Annual contribution (P) = $3,286.52

The answer to the blank space is green marketing.

The Prius is supposed to be marketed for its great value and environmental benefits – thus making the type of marketing the company is doing a green marketing. A green marketing is defined as the process of marketing a product or service based on their environmental benefits – it could be because the product itself is environmentally-friendly (such as the Prius, which is a hybrid electric-gasoline car, which means that it won’t emit as much pollution) or because it is produced in an environmental-friendly way.
